Ruff House

We are ecstatic to have found Crystal and this program! We welcomed an 8 week golden doodle puppy to our family this past October and were very focused on starting puppy training classes asap. My husband and I have never taken the dogs we’ve had in the past to formal dog training. We quickly realized finding the right fit was important (Ruffhouse is the 3^rd training program we tried) and after the first class with Crystal, we knew we’d found our trainer! We are so excited about our puppy’s progress, Rosco has learned the major commands and we can clearly tell how much he likes Crystal. We have enjoyed going to class these last 4 months so much, that we rescued another puppy from PACC 2 weeks ago, and can’t wait to start him (Moxi) in the first series of puppy training classes. This has become our new favorite hobby to do together and really came at a great time, since both our children have left home and we are recent empty nesters. It is such pleasure to work with Crystal and her husband as well.

We have been taking our 4 – 5 month old puppy to Crystal’s puppy classes. This is a small group class where the puppies & owners learn how to encourage proper behavior through positive reinforcement. Our puppy has learned how to sit, lie down, stay, come & stay on her place designated by us, and to play well with her friends. We can now introduce her to friends, go to the dog parks & take walks nicely. We are so happy. Crystal also takes time to answer any questions about poor behavior and offer suggestions on how to redirect, such as chewing, jumping & mouthing. Well worth the money!

Great puppy class! I will definitely be returning for future dog training services.

Crystal helped our dog learn to appropriately approach other dogs and not go crazy when the door bell rings. Her knowledge and skill with dogs is obvious! She has given me great tips that have taught my old (8 year old) dog some new tricks. Thank you, Crystal!
